ZeroHedge - On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero
Amazon is developing a massive solar farm in Maryland on the site of a 120-year-old coal mine.
The state Department of Transportation has said exploratory core borings are needed to confirm the feasibility of construction at proposed locations, proceed with further slope designs and understand geology beneath the future roadway. The DOT has suggested core borings on property within and adjacent to its preferred route for the Parsons-to-Davis section would minimize impacts. But that path has drawn heavy opposition from environmental groups and many local business owners and residents who want officials to route the corridor north of Parsons.
One of the projects, Amazon Solar Farm Maryland – CPV Backbone, is expected to be the largest solar farm in the state.
CUMBERLAND — Amazon will buy renewable energy from a solar project on Backbone Mountain in Garrett County that is being built at the former site of a reclaimed coal mine.
